Dean Harrison is one of the greatest riders that Oliver’s Mount has ever seen, as he continued his remarkable record there.
The Bradford ace was competing at the Gold Cup event, which was celebrating the 80th anniversary of the famous Scarborough racing circuit.
And the Honda Racing UK superstar was the centre of attention, as he claimed five wins aboard Supersport machinery.
He has now won an incredible 116 times at the circuit and there was simply no stopping him on Saturday.
Harrison won the two Supersport A races that day by over 12 seconds, Peter Hickman finishing second to him on both occasions.
The Bradford man secured his third win, by a margin of just over three seconds to Hickman, to open up Sunday in style, before competing in the feature Gold Cup.
A rain delay affected the showpiece and led to a wet track, but Harrison was still the master in tricky conditions, beating Mike Browne across the line to take victory.
In the final Supersport A race of the weekend, Harrison provided a fitting finale, as he edged out Tom Weeden by around three seconds.
It was Harrison’s first appearance at Oliver’s Mount since 2023, but it was as if he had never been away.
As well as his five victories, the Bradford ace also set the fastest lap of the weekend by far.
It was yet another stellar weekend in a stellar year for Harrison, who became Senior TT champion at the Isle of Man back in May for only the second time in his career.
